This course is a seminar that defines, compares and contrast a variety of neurodegerative disorders (NDDs) within a cognitive neuroscience/neuropsychology framework. Some disorders are congenital (people are born with them), and some are acquired through unfortunate life situations such as sports injuries, concussions or other brain trauma or pathological age-related changes. Some examples of topics to be discussed are: Congenital Birth Defects, Childhood Disintegrative Disorders, and Childhood Brain Trauma; developmental disorders such as autism, attention deficits and hyperactivity and Specific Learning Disabilities, Traumatic Brain Injuries, Alzheimer's Disease, and other dementias. Evaluation, diagnosis, interventions as well as associated ethical issues will be discussed. This course will prepare students with a foundation for applied learning within rehabilitative and behavioral treatment settings, hospitals, clinics, and research facilities focused on NDD therapies. Offered once a year.
